I don't own digimon.

Date 26

A mahoran goodbye

"Well this just wonderful." Ryouma muttered. "I guess we know who to blame for this."

At the moment, the doll's attention focused solely on Airu. While this is probably not the best time to assign blame, we can both understand where the doll was coming from?

"I guess?" Ren added and carefully pulled himself out of his mermaid costume, getting handed a clean set of clothes by his partner. Even if it was a copy of the dress rather than an actual set of casual clothes. Though, it come with an additional look. Could've done with that, but what do you do about that? Not much. "Uh… thanks for knowing that?"

The rest of the team turned around as the background silhouettes did did something similar. It was kind of unnecessary, but it was nice thought.

Once Ren was done changing, their attention turned to searching for a possible exit. For starters, they could easily make their way through the changing rooms and navigate the hallways to find their unknown opponent. Or they could try their luck at smashing through some walls and hope for the best. With option is viable here. If you have the right tools of course

"Why would we even do that?" Cho remarked, remembering that she had left her rake back in the changing rooms. Which was an honest mistake that could've been avoided. But considering how people would probably react, that might have been for the better. Maybe this is perfect time for a new weapon or something. "Maybe? I actually like my rake."

Let me guess? It has something special tied to it?

Cho shook her head, only for Airu to put a hand on her back.

"Hey, it'll be alright." Airu cooed, watching her girlfriend's face turn a bright shade of pink. She gave a nod as the group made their way back towards the changing rooms.

Inside, the lockers lined the walls and the bright white palette continued on. Which would make initial examinations of this room seem the same to all the other rooms here. But on closer inspection, it would appear that things were slightly different. Nameplates had been placed on the lockers, with a couple light blue accents thrown in to differentiate the area. Still not what I would've gone with here.

"Huh." Airu whispered, quickly finding the locker she had put their clothes in and opened it up. "Wait. That shouldn't be here."

Cho and Ryouma scurried over and did a double take. While their original clothes were not to be found, someone had left behind some clothes for them to wear. Along with Airu's backpack. Which was kind of nice of them to do.

"Let's see here…"

The first one was a pink skirt suit and green undershirt, with matching glasses and heels. The sort of outfit that could only fit one person.

"I guess this one is mine." Airu remarked and Cho handed it over, watching her sweetheart slip into a nearby stall and get out of her swimsuit. A minute or two later, she popped out. "What do you think?"

Cho stared towards her partner, with a nosebleed beginning to form. Somehow, her girlfriend managed to sell herself as a teacher. She even had added a pin of a lily.

"Oh my." Airu continued as she made her way over to her partner. "I'm give additional lessons~"

She got a nod in return, only to notice a bunch of hair scrunchies she forgot to grab.

"Could you help me tie my hair back?"

What followed, was the two girls attempting to tie a ponytail and failing miserably. It was only after Ren stepped in to help the first two that Airu actually managed to get what she desired. Which did give Yasyamon some ideas.

"Thanks."

With that now out of the way, Cho turned her attention back to the locker. This time, the outfit in question appeared to be a pastel purple blouse with a pink jumper dress over it. Add in the matching set of flats and earrings, what not to love?

"Is someone jealous then?" Ryouma joked as one of the narrators (probably Sachiko's) face turned red. Nonetheless, she made her way into a nearby stall and got to work.

"Now, who wants desert?"

Airu shot back around, letting her jaw drop a little. Sure, her reaction was similar in nature to Cho's, but it all made it seem even sweeter. She too had a lily pin on her top.

"I do!" the trapper remarked and carefully slipped her glasses off, going in for a 'sweet lick'. And as tempting as it would be to go for the lips after their fun times mere minutes before, they went for the necks instead. Not the most tasteful to happen love-wise in this fic.

"Is it my turn yet?" Ryouma announced and got a nod from the two lovebirds. "Okay!"

Carefully, she jumped over to the locker and looked over the one option left. Which in this case was a white and blue sailor fuku. I feel like you got the short end of the stick here. Not that I don't think it would look bad on you. If anything, it'll be perfect for a doll such as yourself.

"I'll take it." she remarked and closed the locker door. "I'm getting dressed!"

"Okay." Airu remarked and carefully popped the lenses of the glasses out. "Much better."

After, she let her attention turn to Cho.

"We look like were getting ready for an orgy." the trapper joked and got a chuckle from her girlfriend.

"I guess."

After saying that, one could hear their possible opponent complaining

"What the fuck you're doing, stop it!" they announced. "I don't care if those clothes fit you or not, just get your asses out of here!"

A series of punches and other attacks followed. Not that they could really tell who was attack whom.

So instead, they decided to take to just admire Ren. Gone was his dress, having been replaced with one of those sexy nurse outfits. It was a nice blue color too.

"You idiot." the bomber whispered. "How is anyone going to believe believe that my main preference is blowing stuff up?"

His partner gave him a pat on the head, mumbling something under his breath. They probably wanted to be the ones wearing the outfit rather than Ren.

"Thanks." he whispered and turned his attention to the locker. "You alright in there, Ryouma?"

"No."

Both Ren and Airu ran back over, with the latter pulling the container open. There, the doll sat in her outfit. She looked almost ready to cry as her eyes focused on them. But her gaze fell to the floor of the locker.

"I keep seeing things. Corpses reduced to nothing but mush - Girls forced to fight against one another as paranoia began to set in." the doll explained. "But it wasn't all bad. I saw love in the air (yuck?), lots of shotguns, and a girl."

"What about a girl?" Airu asked and watched Ryouma take a deep breath.

"She told that I had been chosen as the last one to be sent away and that I had a very special mission." Ryouma continued, carefully sitting herself up. "I was to find a place for her and everyone else to finally settle down."

She turned her attention to her teammates.

"But this whole trip has gone wrong. For one, I was supposed to meet up with my partner, which hasn't happened yet. I even lost the phone number they gave me to call just in case."

Wait. Do you even have a phone for starters? While you might not have their number, you could try to make some friends and get their contacts.

Ryouma just ignored the narrator's latest comment.

"Do you know what they look like at least?" Cho asked and got a nod in return. "So what should we be looking for?"

"Look for a woman with a wyvern was what she told me. Though, I haven't been so lucky on that front."

Hm… That could be a bit difficult when it has turned to its other form. Though, you might want to ask Fate about them.

"Okay."

Carefully, Ryouma jumped onto Yasyamon's head. Though, Cho's attention was fixated on a nearby locker. She opened it up, revealing what looked to be her rake. Which is even better on this mystery person's part.

"Ooh…" the baker whispered and carefully held it in her hands, cracking a smile right after. "I think we're ready now."

With that, made their way towards the door and pushed it open.

But instead of finding a lobby, the trio were instead greeted by a large room. Polly and her two partners waited inside, keeping themselves quite busy by sparring. And by sparring, I mean going at it with a strength reserved only for one's rivals.

"There you are!" Polly announced and Chacha made a hand signal, bringing an end to the battle. "Nice clothes."

Two of the three chosen blushed, with Ryouma just choosing to jump down.

"What do you need?" Polly inquired as the doll approached her husband.

"I'm looking for a girl and her wyvern." Ryouma answered. "Do you know a way that I could possibly contact them?"

Fate let out a sigh and began digging into his pockets. Eventually, a slip of paper was handed to the doll.

"The rest is up to you guys." Polly explained and turned her attention to Fate. "Any advice for these newbies?"

Fate let out a chuckle.

"You guys seemed to have your shit together more so than Elena and Alice did at this point." the harem mage joked and caught a glance from his wife. "In all seriousness, try not to get separated. If you can do that, you're golden for greatness, lily gals."

Airu and Cho shot the pair a quick glance. While the nickname made sense, it was quite clear he was trying to say it in the nicest way possible.

"You're just going to stay here?" Cho inquired and got a nod from Chacha.

"Yes." the gyroid remarked, making her way towards the baker. "It's time for us to take our bow and exit stage right."

Silence fell over our heroes, with Cho shooting Airu a quick glance. Currently, she was debating whether or not to add something in.

"Your not going to help us with this guy?" the trapper countered and got more laughter in return. Their attention shifted over to their opponent, who was making his way further into the building.

"And make it easy?" Polly answered. "I'm fairly certain that he's one, on Order turf. Secondly, both of my partners are former members. Third, it wouldn't be that fun of a fight to read."

Those are all valid reasons. Good enough.

"You're joking, right?" there supposed opponent announced, seeming to shake in place. "I can't catch a break today, can I?"

He was ignored as the trio walked over to a nearby wall, smashing a hole in it. They stepped on through as their allies watched on in disbelief.

"I would get going if I were you guys." Fate finished with as the rubble came down, splitting off the mahora trio from Airu and Co. "Ready to start the next chapter of our life?"

A pair of nods followed that statement. Which came right as a familiar armored vehicle made a less than graceful landing.

"It's been awhile." they greeted and watched their teammates exit, a hug coming right after.

Notes:

Surprise.
